Schreckliche Aufenthalt

Wir waren 2023 schon einmal in diesem Haus und hatten eine wunderbare Zeit, doch dieses Jahr war der Aufenthalt enttäuschend. In den zwei Jahren hat der Poolbereich stark unter Schimmel gelitten, und der Saunaofen löste den FI-Schalter aus, sodass wir die Sauna wegen ständiger Stromausfälle nicht nutzen konnten. Der Pool hatte eine Wassertemperatur von 20 Grad, was für Erholung nicht angenehm ist. Die Luftfeuchtigkeit im Raum betrug 95 %, was extrem hoch ist. Uns wurde vorgeworfen, unsere Kinder seien schuld daran, dass die Sauna kaputt ist oder der FI-Schalter auslöst, weil sie ins Pool gesprungen seien. Zur Klarstellung: Die Kinder waren nur einmal dort, da das Wasser zu kalt war.Der Elektriker war dort er sagte der Saunaofen ist kaputt und daran liegt es. In den 2 Tagen waren fünf Handwerker vor Ort, sodass wir unseren Urlaub überhaupt nicht wie geplant genießen konnten. Das WC-Schloss war bereits am ersten Tag kaputt, wurde provisorisch repariert, bis sich jemand von uns dort einsperrte. Danach wurde es fachgerecht repariert. Die Eigentümer waren von unseren ständigen Anrufen wegen der Mängel genervt und forderten uns zweimal auf, das Haus innerhalb von einer Stunde zu verlassen, sonst würde die Polizei gerufen – was natürlich lächerlich ist. Das Haus ist in einem schrecklichen Zustand und absolut nicht empfehlenswert. Null Sterne.

Es war einfach toll

Das Haus war perfekt und sauber. Das Schwimmbad war ein Highlight für die Kinder. Braunlage ist nicht weit entfernt, wo Wintersport möglich ist.
